wisdom

The only true wisdom is in knowing you know nothing.

A word after a word after a word is power.

There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.

Get your facts first, then you can distort them as you please.

Be yourself; everyone else is already taken.

If I have seen further it is by standing on the shoulders of giants.

Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.

The important thing is not to stop questioning.

Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe.

Success is the sum of small efforts, repeated day in and day out.

Start where you are. Use what you have. Do what you can.

It always seems impossible until it's done.

Life must be understood backward. But it must be lived forward.

Wonder is the beginning of wisdom.

The unexamined life is not worth living.

Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.

The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.

You have power over your mind, not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.

We suffer more often in imagination than in reality.
